You should build the "install" target, to get a release folder similar to what you can download on the website. It is explained in the tutorial.

Hmm I did build all the targets, I just made it a VS .sln file and clicked *build solution* which should've built all targets, right?

Don't copy DLLs from include or lib, in sfml folder it should be folder called bin, from this folder copy all DLLs and paste it in debug.

Hmm, I'm not able to find a bin/ folder, where would this be located? I built into a ./build/ folder where there is the lib folder.

General / Error "cannot open file 'sfml-graphics-d.lib'

I compiled SFML using the tutorial, dynamically. I used VS2019.

In my project, I added the include\ folder, and in linker added the lib\ folder. I then added this to the input options:
sfml-graphics-d.lib
sfml-window-d.lib
sfml-system-d.lib

Since I compiled it as a dynamic lib, I added the following DLL files to the directory where my executable is generated(copied from lib\Debug\):
sfml-graphics-d-2.dll
sfml-window-d-2.dll
sfml-system-d-2.dll

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
